Vuurmuur is a firewall manager for Linux that supports IPv4, IPv6, and traffic shaping. It has powerful monitoring features for logging and live connections. It can be managed entirely through an Ncurses GUI, on the console, or through SSH.

FrobTADS is a complete rewrite of the Unix
console-version of TADS ("Text Adventure
Development System"). It uses curses (or ncurses)
and provides an interpreter to play games
developed with TADS as well as the TADS 2 and 3
development tools. It adds support for a number of
relatively recent user interface features
including full support for text and background
colors, TADS 3 banner windows, and timed input.
It's also much more portable and more easily
maintainable, as it's built to modern Unix standards.

BarnOwl is a curses-based instant messaging client supporting the Jabber, IRC, AIM, and Zephyr protocols. It is designed to be easily extensible through Perl plug-in modules, and much of the core functionality is provided by such modules.

Audtty is an ncurses-based terminal frontend to the Audacious Media Player. It is a fork of xmms-curses and is designed to be lightweight and intuitive to use. Audtty makes it easy to control the Audacious Media Player from the command line, either locally or remotely.

selector is a command line utility for dynamic string selection. It reads the content of the specified files, and as the user types a list of strings separated by ";" (or a regexp), the display is updated in real time to show only the lines containing all the said strings (or matching the regexp). This command was mainly designed as a way to search in the shell history, for which it is substantially more efficient than the standard readline ^R binding. With the -v option, it injects the selected line into the tty input buffer, hence allowing the user to edit the line and execute it as a standard command.

XorCurses is a game based entirely on Xor by Astral Software. The original game was released around 1987 for the 8-bit home computers popular at the time. XorCurses attempts to faithfully recreate that game for Linux, but slightly ironically, uses ASCII characters instead of pixel based graphics (which even the 8-bit computers could manage). The idea of Xor is to roam around a series of mazes collecting masks. The first level is simply a matter of finding your way around, but the second level introduces fish and chickens which block your path or kill you if they hit you. From there on in, things get progressively tougher and really is a challenging and difficult puzzle game.

Bviplus is a console ncurses based binary file editor (hex editor) with Vim-like keys and features. It can quickly open/edit/save very large files (> 2GiB). It can perform regexp-like pattern searches in hex or ASCII windows. It features search highlighting, multiple undo/redo, a tabbed multiple file interface, visual selection, cut and paste (which works between files as well), blob coloring, and more. It can run external programs on selected data, supporting any program that reads stdin and writes stdout. It has few dependencies for easy portability.
